Ongoing NC GOP debacle thread

Hard to bend over for big business with small government.
 
For a brief moment I thought this Moral Monday photo was keeper:

Dana Cope, executive director at the State Employees Association of North Carolina, noted the disparity in the cabinet raises with the treatment of rank-and-file state employees, who received a 1.2 percent pay bump this year, the first in four years. The governor received the same salary increase to $141,265.
Cope said McCrory’s pay hikes suggest that all state employees are paid below private sector rates.
“The employees who work for those executives are also underpaid,” he said. “I hope this is a rising tide that will lift all boats, not just the one with the captain in it.”

What does that even mean in this context?

It means she wants a fucking raise.
 
And Gov McCrory lied about abortion restrictions.

WHO SAW THAT COMING?
 
The most heinous voters suppression law in over half a century.

Of course something like this was inevitable after the insane decision by the radical Roberts Court.

Not extending voting hours for people who are already in line is undeniably voter suppression.

From the W-SJ: Editorial: Elections bill will suppress voting in North Carolina
Click to expand...

"This elections bill is a cynical effort to take from certain groups of Americans their most cherished right." What a load of horsehit. If it is their most cherished right, I'm pretty sure they can find a way to get proper identification in the 15 months prior to the next election of importance. We need IDs to buy guns, buy alcohol, drive a car, get in to certain buildings, even see an Rated-R movie or borrow a fucking library book. People are fine with the government soon having access to every medical record compiled about every single one of its citizens, but for some reason shouldn't be allowed to require basic identification when voting? Bullshit. Regardless of whether there is an identifiable fraud problem, the concept that we do not need to require identification to perform a task as crucial as voting is simply absurd and utterly indefensible.
 
It's not just IDs. They won't even keep polls open for those who are already in line.

They are cutting down the number of days and places to vote.

Defending this is defending a planned, orchestrated law to deny people access and the ability to utilize their right vote.

Any BS you come up with is just that. It's rationalizations to justify a totally unjust attack on North Carolinian's basic right to vote.
